Should I epect someone to help me out or I should move on I can wait 5 min more max

Hi, welcome to Just Answer. My name is***** for the wait last night. I am in Florida and had already turned in for the night when you posted your question.This is not an alarm problem. The alarm does not disable the starter motor on this car. This sounds like either a bad starter battery under the hood or a weak battery in the trunk or a bad starter motor. There are numerous other possibilities for the starter not to crank the motor but those are the most common. The first thing that you should do is try a jump start on the battery under the hood and have the battery in the trunk tested. If that does not work you will need to get the car to the shop to have the starter circuit tested.Let me know if you have any questions.Marty

Once again I do apologize for the wait. As our terms of service state: The site is not intended or designed for EMERGENCY questions which should be directed immediately by telephone or in-person to qualified professionals.I will submit this question for a full refund.Marty
